Multicultural Youth Network

The Multicultural Youth Network (MYN) was originally established as the Multifaith Multicultural Youth Network in September 2007 to provide advice to the Victorian Government, on issues and initiatives that affect young Victorians from multicultural backgrounds.

The MYN is chaired by the Victorian Multicultural Commission Youth Commissioner. It is comprised of young people from a range of faiths, cultures, ages, geographical locations and life experiences.

The MYN is supported by the Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Robin Scott and the Minister for Youth Affairs, Jenny Mikakos.

The MYN meets once a month, and as well as highlighting key issues facing young Victorians, members have the opportunity to deliver presentations on diversity, faith and culture in Victoria, develop youth-led projects and their own skills in responding to some of these issues.
